====== Matthew Iselin: IPv6 Implementation ====== ===== Notes ===== I'll update this with notes and links to websites I find as I'm working on the project that might be handy later on. The notes here may also be the foundation for the IPv6 documentation later on. ==== Useful RFCs ==== * [[http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2460.html|RFC 2460 (IPv6 Spec)]] * [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861|RFC 4861 (Neighbour Discovery Protocol)]] * [[http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2462.html|RFC 2462 (IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration)]] * [[http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3315.html|RFC 3315 (DHCPv6)]] ==== Code ==== * [[http://pedigree-project.org/projects/pedigree/repository/revisions/develop/entry/src/modules/system/network-stack|Pedigree's network stack]] with IPv6 support (new BSD license) ==== Notes to Self ==== * Can't get network interface's MAC address within a TCPIP protocol (eg ICMP, UDP). Will need to have a user begin the process of autoconfiguration for a link-local address manually! * Link-local address must always be present, globally routed address can be obtained via router advertisements or DHCPv6 (and may not exist). How do we manage this for potential users? * Probably worth fixing DNS to use AAAA records earlier rather than later.
